    Be sure to try the Gator Tail appetizer. It's cooked just right so it's tender and seasoned well. If you like chicken, you'll be OK. Gotta say you've at least given it a try, but you won't be sorry.

    Need I say more... Great food and service. Consistent. Love this place, however I'd wish they would put the chili back on the menu.

    Service here was ridiculously slow and our server was kind of rude!! The up side was the food was awesome! So if you just want good food and don't care about service go right ahead!

    The menu is overwhelming. Is it a fish, Asian, American, or Mexican place. My tip...stick to what you do best and leave out all the rest. Food is tasteless and it's very disappointing.
